Packers’ long snapper to start 2022 might not be on current roster

The long-snapper position is once again a big question mark for the Green Bay Packers.

Last summer, Hunter Bradley, a former draft pick by the Packers, battled inconsistency and was eventually replaced during the season by Steven Wirtel, who had been on the practice squad.

Unfortunately, that move didn’t spark any improvements. Wirtel was PFF’s third-lowest graded long-snapper last season, as he too, was wildly inconsistent.

To some degree, the struggles snapping did play a factor in Mason Crosby’s down season, and I’m sure, as you all remember, it was Wirtel who San Francisco’s Jordan Willis ran through to block that punt in the playoffs.
